it's not very hard to genuinely like the prequels. just watch them as a purposeful insult to star wars fans. oh you like the jedi? they're a shitty sect of assholes now. you like vader? he was never a great hero who fell, just a teenage creep. you like boba fett and stormtroopers? here's a million cgi fett-troopers, choke on it.

yeah but what's the motivation behind "mimicking the original trilogy"? what disney actually wants is to just throw all the baggage away and remake the whole thing with new actors, but that would offend the cranky old fans. so they did a "sequel" that still has the old actors but actually just starts the whole story over with new characters.

it's a subtler version of what jj already did with star trek, where you had nimoy providing a link between all the old shit they wanted to throw in the garbage and the shiny new reboot.

you fucking faggots. Sure it doesn't tell us the movie is good, and we've been through this rodeo before with the initial hype for each prequel movie, but it doesn't tell us it's bad either. This might as well be neutral like the last few weeks of Rotten Tomatoes POWERED BY DURACELL.

>prequels are bad movies
Can we end this meme? It seems every single person loves to throw in how much they hate the prequels whenever talking about Star Wars to let people know they're "real Star Wars nerds." The prequels had an originality to them that the new movie seems to definitely lack but "it ruined people's childhoods" because they weren't just a rehash of the originals like TFA is bound to be. They have many flaws but the terribleness of the movies is absurdly overstated.

That's what I'm saying.
The problem is people who were alive during the OT's release are biased towards that particular trilogy and those growing up when the prequels were released have the same biases towards the new trilogy.
Kids growing up today will be biased towards the sequels.

In 20 or so years we'll have kids who have all 9 movies spinoffs notwithstanding at their disposal. They'll have the same biases towards the entire series so they'll be able to judge objectively.

I haven't seen a single Abrams film. But I watched little bits of Star Trek on TV. And I kind feel like I know exactly what all his movies are like and why I wouldn't enjoy any of them that much. They seem like entertaining action filled films, but very shallow. Not bad, but not memorable.

I'm glad he brought the dumb action back to Star Wars, because originally it was just a fun action space adventure before it was anything else, which was something that felt absent in the prequels. But I think a lot of what people like about Star Wars is the deeply immersive world that was created in those original films and the really great characters and story. I didn't really feel like abrams would be capable or bothered to do any of that. He was basically only obliged to make another dumb shallow but serviceable action movie that would use the Star Wars IP, all he needed to do is make it not terrible and billions of dollars in profits are guaranteed.

I'm more interested in the spin off movies they are planning, because hopefully they'll leave the creators more room for actual creativity.

Did you quote the wrong post? That is exactly my point.

>>63673373
I don't necessarily agree, but I can see your point. The biases will still be their, it's in the culture. Unless Star Wars dies out as a franchise I don't see how the bias can't be carried on.

The reason I believe this is also influenced by how so many ignore the age of the work when reviewing. I notice it a lot in video games, don't know how much it happens when it comes to movies.

>>63673369
yes i think the singularity needs to happen and we need to give birth to virtual human-ai hybrids that will use all the matter in the solar system to construct The Judgment Matrix for only it can objectively determine what's up with all these star wars

The trick is, I think, to view the movies at a young age.
6 or 7 years old is about perfect.
The CGI quality doesn't bother kids at that age and they can generally follow a plotline.
But yeah, the OT is just slower.
Movies from the 70's generally are.

I believe that a good movie should stand the test of time, though. Is a comedy from the 80s funny to today's youth? If so then it's probably aways going to be funny.

Time is not kind to cinema.

I know Reddit is full of fucking racists, but I am shocked that the Finn character, who is so prominent in all merchandising, is a fucking side-character/comedy relief who falls into a coma.

DISNEY really doesn't want to offend overseas markets with black characters, and it's hilarious.

I don't know. The context, (apparently) is that Kylo says this to his father, asking for help. And when Han sees this as an opportunity to bond with his son and save him, Kylo just impales him with his lightsaber.
So it's one of those "intentionally cheesy" lines.

I never grew up with Star Wars, only watched all of the films in the past year.

The prequels are fucking awful. ROTJ isn't great either, and ANH is campy as hell, but they work enough.

End the "end the prequels are bad movies meme" meme.
>>
Something's really sad about all this.

I wasn't that interested in this movie when i first heard abrams was doing it.. but i heard some people claiming it was going to be something special, and I started having hope.

Now it's out and it sounds like a stinker. I feel like a beaten housewife for having any faith that anything new with star wars written on it is going to be good.

The only thing I enjoyed since the original trilogy was Tartakovsky's clone wars cartoon.

>>63673326
>he terribleness of the movies is absurdly overstated.
I disagree. TPM didn't even have a clear protagonist. The plot is so unclear I still have trouble putting in words what was meant to be happening in that movie. I can hardly think of a film with more basic screenwriting issues.

I'm surprised Faraci's willing to criticise TFA. Berardinelli won't be too critical, but he's probably paid off.

well it doesn't take a whole lot to be better than the prequels. Everyone wants to know if its better or on par with the originals

The problem with the star trek movies was they weren't star trek. They were action sci-fi with Star trek in the title. The only time I felt like I was watching star trek during those moves was the first 5 minutes of the 2nd movie. They were trying to save a civilization from a natural event without effecting their culture.

But fuck it the other star trek movies never felt like star trek anyway.

The directors they have lined up are not promising. Looper was a mess, especially the script. Then it's in the hands of the people who brought you Jurassic World, Godzilla, and 21 Jump Street (the best movie of the lot, but the farthest from sci-fi action).
>>
>>63676969
bleh. I'd rather see them do a something lesser known directors. I mean... the Marvel movies are being written pretty well. I don't know are they a completely different segment of Disney these days, but it would be awesome if they could let them handle the star wars shit.

Think of of it this way, in relation to Edwards directing rogue one. The death star is godzilla, so he shows up at at a couple brief moments to fuck shit up. And since it isn't called "death star" the "the movie is called ____ so why isn't ____ in it more" meme will not apply.

Well good, i won't be let down then, because i'm going into it thinking it's just going to be a nostalgia fest while setting up their new characters. It's jj abrams, he's just slightly better than michael bay.

Way too many people buying into the hype that it's going to be the greatest shit ever.

Like did you faggots even watch those star trek movies? At least abrams makes a half assed attempt to tie on a plot while being an action flick, i'm not expecting much so i assume i won't be that disappointed.
